Cory Joseph grabbed a career-high 11 rebounds against the Nets on Wednesday, adding 15 points, three assists, two steals, two blocks and one 3-pointer in 36 minutes.

It was easily the most productive game on the stat sheet after Joseph didn't have a single steal or block in his previous three games. Joseph apparently likes to play against the Nets because he had a career-high 33 against them last year. Darren Collison should be back shortly after the break, so CoJo is more of a drop than an add.

Cory Joseph had six rebounds and four assists in 21 minutes on Sunday, but added just two points on 1-of-3 shooting without any 3-pointers or defensive stats.

Darren Collison (knee) is one week into his 2-3 week timetable, and Joseph has yet to help fantasy owners in his absence. In three previous starts he was averaging 3.0 points on 15.0% shooting, 5.3 assists and 2.3 rebounds, without a single 3-pointer, steal or block to his credit. Suffice to say, there are more appealing options on almost any waiver wire. Feb 11 - 8:48 PM

Cory Joseph missed all six of his shots and failed to score vs. Boston on Friday, adding seven assists, two rebounds and two turnovers in 34 minutes.

Despite the poor stat line, Joseph played some nice defense on Kyrie Irving and drew some praise from coach Nate McMillan. "I thought Cory played about as good defense as you can play on Kyrie, just trying to stay in front of him, making hustle plays," McMillan said. Joseph added that he had "no legs" offensively, but things should get easier on Sunday in New York. He's still just a low-end add while Darren Collison (knee) is out, but owners in standard leagues can probably do better. Feb 9 - 11:16 PM

Cory Joseph started in place of Darren Collison (knee surgery) on Monday, but hit just 2-of-7 shots for seven points, two rebounds and four assists in 36 minutes.

Joseph has been a better back up player than a starter through his career, but he is going to have plenty of opportunities over the next three weeks with Collison out. There are still much better free agents to target, but Joseph does deserve to be watched closely over the next few games, in case he gets hot. Feb 5 - 10:18 PM

Darren Collison is set to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and is expected to miss the next 2-3 weeks of action.

Arthroscopic knee surgery is one of the more minor procedures a player can undergo, so his absence shouldn't extend beyond that 2-3 week window. Cory Joseph should be starting over the next few weeks with Collison unavailable, so he could be worth a speculative add in deep leagues, although he's more of a wait-and-see guy in 12-team leagues with 13 roster spots. Joseph Young should also have the opportunity for some more minutes while Collison is out.

Robinson III has been making progress in his rehab and has been playing for the Pacers G-League affiliate. However, the Pacers don't want to rush him back to the big leagues. There is a nine-day break between the last game before the All-Star break and the first game after. GRIII will be on a minutes limit when he gets back, which limits his fantasy value. He should be left on waivers.
